After reading all the rave reviews, we decide to add this to our weekend Vegas trip. The restaurant shares its space with a local-looking bar but dont let that deter you. The main decor is the well-lit center sushi bar, with tables (1 deep only) around the perimeter. \r

No doubt the sushi is very fresh which makes their nigiri sushi (fish and rice) the top of my list. That day I found the salmon to be the tastiest, followed by their salmon roe and maguro tuna. The selection of fish is fairly basic with uni (sea urchin) and sweet shrimp w/head as the most exotic items on their menu. Their rolls were fairly straight forward. What makes some of the rolls unique is their Yum Yum sauce which is a mayo based spicy hot sauce. It is very good but after a while you may end up hoping for a variety of sauces to accompany their carefully prepared rolls like I did. \r

If you have a healthy appetite the all-you-can-eat deal is probably your best option. You can literally order anything on the menu including their most expensive items. Unfortunately the day we went they were out of uni and fresh eel. Their house special rolls are very large so if you want to save yourself from getting full too quickly you can request for half size rolls.\r

The place was empty on Saturday at 5pm for the early bird special ($26.95), but don't worry as the sushi is as fresh as others have testified. Also you will recieve 1 on 1 attention from the friendly Japanese sushi chiefs. Essentially this is a down-to-earth no-frills sushi establishment where, to the delight of sushi purist, only the freshness of the fish stands out.
Pros: Fresh fish. Good value. Friendly service.
Cons: Average variety.
